Re: Marble Challenge
These are cool! With school deadlines right now (hopefully I'll have something to show soon), I can't try my hand, but I feel like the marbles need more mess in them. It seems like too much clear for a marble. Perhaps just a slightly less clear, possibly colored, glass would be good.

A very tidy kid...
My first try ever with Twilight. I have the program from a few hours and have not read the manual yet...

Re: Marble Challenge
nice one, Massimo,
Try the Easy Settings Folder "Medium+" or "High+" setting for better AA
Even Low+ may look really good and be faster - but caustics may or may not be good with that setting.

Re: Marble Challenge
Thanks Fletch. That was Tech. 04. MLT (BPT), I'll try the presets you suggested.
Re: Marble Challenge
oh, well, in that case, the strangeness here may be just due to .jpg compression artifacts or something.
I really like the idea you had for the marbles

Re: Marble Challenge
You're right about the sphere. The HDR is about 56 Mb so quite hi-res but I had to subdivide a lot the mesh because the surface was strangely really faceted in the render. So I assume that what you see are the mesh's faces.
Re: Marble Challenge
aha... yes - be sure any smoothed curved surfaces in SketchUp are either GROUPED or inside of a COMPONENT.
For some reason, without that, they will not be rendered smoothly. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
